USING YOUR SAUNA
Review all health and safety instructions. If in doubt as to the advisability of using your sauna,
consult with your doctor. If you feel light-headed or heat-exhausted during a session, exit the
sauna immediately.
1. We recommend that a sauna session does not exceed 30 minutes.
2. When the temperature reaches the level set on the control panel, the heaters will turn
off and on periodically in order to maintain the set temperature inside the sauna. The
heaters continue to emit far infrared as they cool.
3. The fresh-air fan can be used at any time to introduce fresh air into the sauna. You can
also open the door to introduce even more fresh air into the sauna. Infrared's unique
property of heating the body directly without heating the space in between allows the
users to enjoy all of its benefits while the vent or door of a sauna is open for
ventilation.
4. Always drink plenty of water before, during, and after a session. Doing so will replenish
fluids lost from the body through perspiration.
5. Choosing to take a hot shower or bath, or doing some light exercise prior to the sauna
session will further promote perspiration. However, dry off thoroughly before going into
the sauna because excessive water will stain or warp the wood. A warm to cool
shower after the session is refreshing and rinses perspiration from the body.
6. To absorb perspiration and keep the sauna tidy during the session, place a towel on
the bench and floor of the sauna. Keep an extra towel handy to wipe excess sweat
from your body.
ADDITIONAL TIPS FOR USING YOUR SAUNA
1. To help relieve sore and tense muscles, massage the affected areas while in the
sauna to help heal faster.
2. Do not put any lotions or oils on the body or face when using the sauna. This may
block the pores and hinder perspiration. Wash lotions off of the body prior to using
your sauna.
3. Shaving your face or legs while profusely sweating in a sauna yields an incredibly
smooth result without the use of gels or foams.
4. Do not eat anything at least an hour before your sauna session. It is better to go in the
sauna on an empty stomach. You are more likely to feel uncomfortable sitting in a
sauna with a full stomach.
5. To make the most out of your sauna session, work your muscles while in the sauna.
Stretch your arms and legs, massage your neck, massage your feet, etc.
6. At the first sign of cold or flu, increasing your sauna sessions may be beneficial in
boosting your immune system and decreasing the reproductive rate of the viruses. Do
